Meteorite Ore in the Witcher 3 is a rare crafting component that’s used to create several different items, including the Griffin armor set, Ursine armor set, and Wolven armor set. However, obtaining it is no easy task, so you’ll need to be selective with what you choose to craft with it.
There’s no guaranteed way to farm Meteorite Ore, but here are some reliable sources you can usually find it at:
- Loot Everything
- Boxes, crates, barrels, chests, and bodies. Everything you’re able to loot in The Witcher 3, you should loot. You’ll occasionally find rare materials, like Meteorite Ore, just by scavenging through things as you explore caves and keeps.
- Check Blacksmith’s Wares
- Some blacksmiths around the world can sell you Meteorite Ore, among other components you may find useful. Many players report that the blacksmith in Novigrad will sell you Meteorite Ore, for example.
